By the time lunch rolls around you've popped a countless amount of Lortab and you're hardly connected to the world.

Somehow you make it to the lunchroom without getting lost in the maze of hallways. You stand, lost in the hazy mist of your mind, for a short moment, but a fist punching hard at your arm brings you back.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Says a voice.

You look down and confirm that it is your angry new friend Karkat. "Oh, hey, brother. Ready to all get your lunch on?"

Karkat wrinkles his nose at the proposition, as if you'd just held your Converse in front of his face. "No way am I eating that awful excuse for food."

You shrug. "Alright, more for this hungry motherfucker."

Before you go to get your food, Karkat points to a table at the far back. "Me and the idiots I call friends sit back there."

You try to nod, but it makes things in your head spin, so you settle with a 'kay,' then you head to the lunch line where a strange array of fake meat products and canned veggies await. You grab some chicken nuggets, pay with an uncounted handful of dollar bills, and head to the table Karkat pointed out.

"Hey there, motherfuckers." You greet the small group that has gathered as you set down your tray and take a seat.

It's dreadfully obvious that you're among the misfits. There's a guy wearing red and blue tinted glasses, a chick wearing a cat hat and a giant green jacket, another is wearing red glasses and is bopping Karkat with a cane, and then there's a girl next to 3D glasses guy wearing a large gray jacket and looking sullen. ThEy LoOk LiKe NiCe MoThErFuCkErS.

Cane Girl finally stops bopping Karkat so that the protesting boy can introduce everyone. "Okay, this crazy bitch is Terezi." Cane Girl, Terezi, snickers.

"I'm Tholluth." Says 3D glasses guy. "Thith ith Aradia." Emo girl doesn't even wave.

"I'm Nepeta!" Cat girl greets, full of energy.

"I'm Gamzee. Nice to all up and meet ya'll."

Terezi laughs. "You sound out of your mind."

"If only you could see how right you are…" Karkat grumbles back as he crosses his arms over the table and lays his head on them.

"Aw, come on, Karkat! Don't be so grumpy. You should be happy about out new friend." Nepeta chirps happily.

I cOuLd GeT dOwN wItH a MoOd LiKe ThAt.

Karkat groans. "The guy has zero brain cells left with all the drugs he does. Why should I be happy about adding another fucktard to my life?"

"I though there wath thomething thtrange about you."

You just laugh. "You guys are some funny motherfuckers."

Sollux and Karkat share a look.

"Told you so."

"I gueth you weren't jutht overreacting."

"Well, what does he look like?" Terezi asks, peering around the table.

WaIt, ShE cAn'T sEe Me?

"You can't see me sister?" You look to Nepeta with wide eyes. "Can you see me? Am I a ghost?"

Nepeta only giggles, covering her mouth with her hands.

"No, I can't see, you dumbass."

You turn back to Terezi. "Are you blind or something?"

"Oh my God, Karkat, why did you invite thith idiot?" Sollux says, head in his hands.

You don't really understand what's going on, so you just giggle with Nepeta. Even the emo girl Aradia is trying to hide her smile.

Terezi cackles in that weird way of hers. "You're really a weird guy."

You just smile and shrug. "Yeah, I guess a motherfucker might think that."

"Hey, uh, Gamzee." Comes a voice from behind, then Tavros is taking a seat next to you.

"Hey, Tavbro. You know these guys?"

"Sure he does! We're all furriends." Nepeta says.

Tavros gives a nod of confirmation. "Yeah. I'm, uh, glad we're, sitting together."

The other boy fiddles with the strings of his hoodie. "So you, still wanna come over?"

"Well hell yeah. Don't see why not."

"Maybe because he's a blubbering baby." Says Terezi as she pokes a putdown Tavros with the tip of her cane.

"Uh…"

You wrap an arm around Tavros' shoulders. "I think he's a pretty cool motherfucker."

Karkat raises an eyebrow. "Tavros? Cool?" No, not even fucking possible."

Tavros sputters out a series of sounds an 'uh's as you pull him against you, nuzzling the fuzzy shaved side of his head with your face. "Nah, he's cool to me."

Sollux and Aradia both stand.

"We're gonna go. Thinth are getting a little too gay for uth." The male says as he leaves with his arm wrapped around the girl.

You don't really give two shits about gay and straight. Not a single motherfucker could all up and help who they liked. Tavros, however, seems bothered by Sollux's statement, as he tries to squirm away from you. Instead of letting him go, you hold him tighter and eventually he melts against your side.

Terezi starts bopping Karkat again, and Nepeta goes off to talk to some buff guy with long black hair pulled back in a pony tail, so you go back to nuzzling Tavros' head.

"Gamzee, uh, are you, uh, gay?" The Latino asks suddenly.

You laugh softly. "I don't really care. A motherfucker likes who a motherfucker likes."

"Do you, like, uh, me?"

"So far. Something all up in my mind is telling me that I'm gonna like you even more as I get to know you."

"Oh." Tavros says as he goes still. "I think, I like you too. But, uh, I'd like to get to know you more, if that's okay."

"That's fine, Tavbro, take all the time you need."

"Oh my God, guys, please shut up!"

"Aw, is Karkles jealous?"

The bells rings and you and Tavros both ignore Karkat's retching as you hug each other goodbye. "See you." Tavros says, a blush glowing on his cheeks.

You stand, leaving your tray of untouched food at the table, along with Karkat, who has his elbow looped with Terezi's.

"What class do you have next?" He asks.

You check your schedule. "Uh, Home Economics with Ms. Crocker."

Terezi fistpumps. "You have that with me."

If you were a normal person, you'd probably wonder how a blind girl took a class like that, but you were open to all sorts of miracles, so you didn't question the situation.

You walk there with Terezi and Karkat, then inside with just the girl. The two of you take a seat at a back table.

"You're gonna love this class." Says Terezi. "You learn to make all sorts of stuff. Like brownies." She wiggles her eyebrows, hinting at what she means, but you just laugh.

"I already know how to make brownies, sister. 'Cept I make mine with a touch of some motherfucking miracles.'

"Oh my God, you are so brainless." Terezi cackles. "You're funny, a lot more fun than Karkat too."

You're about to say something when the bell rings and the teacher at the front, a small woman with short black hair and a skirt, clears her throat. "Hello , stu- Oh, Ms. Maryam, it would appear neither of your partners are present. Go... sit with those two at the back."

The classy girl in green from earlier begrudgingly moves from her table to yours, where she glances at you then looks away with a grimace.

"That's Kanaya." Terezi whispers to you. "She's Vriska's bff or whatever. Most everyone thinks she has a crush on her, though."

You nod, wondering how any sane person could have a crush on the mean broad from earlier.

"As I was sa-" Ms. Crocker is cut off yet again.

"Hey, Janie. There's been a vomi- I mean, accident, in my classroom. Couldja come help me clean it up?" Says Ms. Lalonde as she sticks her alcohol-mussed head through the door.

Ms. Crocker only sighs in defeat. "Stay put , students. I'll be back in a jiffy." then she's gone, leaving the class alone.

Kanaya gathers her things and quickly moves back to her own table. you sniff at your armpit, wondering vaguely if you stink at all.

"Did she leave?" Asks Terezi.

You nod, then realize she can't see you. "Yeah, sister."

"Good." Terezi lets out a sigh of relief. "That girl makes my brain feel constipated. You should hear her talk, too many big words."

You pop back a couple more Lortab and 'hmmm' to yourself.
